voodoochild,
first, if you are like me from the europe side of the world do what i did,
when i had to find FFIX i had no money too, so i tought and tought, and here's what you need to do:
go to ebay.com and order yourself an NTSC american PS1 and FFIX I0 found it in less the price from europe, for them both, and now i can play CC and xenogears too, dont worry about the elctric conecction, go to the nearest electricety shop, and ask for a convertor, they usualy got one, not too pricey.

I liked KH better,
i know it looks childish, but it's the best square made in a lot of tie, i wont say supirrior to IX, but definatly is better then X.
